'Hey English Rose ! Drop em and Give me Twenty !'
A true passage of rites for any rising Dreamboat is of course the 'Pop Star Magazine' photo shoot , with of course our favourite photographer Keith Munyan . Keith as we know has an amazing record of getting our favourite Dreamboats to loose their shirts , to remind ourselves of his talent, lets take a look back at a few of his greatest works so far .
'Taylor on a Tyre'
Who could forget the fabled 'Taylor on a Tyre' series as Taylor swung back and forth , muscles rippling , the wind gently catching his open shirt , only the sound of Keith's famous wind chimes could be heard As Taylor showcased that body .
Mad About the Boy
In an unlikely echo of Bruce Weber and his work with Bruce's muse of a lifetime Peter Johnson . Keith's camera zoomed in on Cody 'Dusty' Linley . Keith had Cody in the doorway , up a tree , in the barn and even on the top of a motorbike , it was as if the possibilities of posing Cody were truly endless.
Howdy - Cody in the Barn
'Ding Dong Avon !'
Cody - Easy Rider
As if that wasn't enough how about Devon as Ryan Sheckler .
Devon - Hot Wheels !
Yes there are a few exceptions , some expected David Archuleta and some not .Lucas 'Man Mews' Till , unusually kept his shirt on , although Lucas could have been put off by Queen blasting out of Keith's speakers . Sadly Lucas did not want to break free of his shirt .
What then of Gorgeous Gregg , would the young and fragrant English dimpled rose succumb to the magic of Keith's zoom lens and loose those self tightening t shirts forever ?
The shoot starts , with Gorgeous Gregg in a particularly fine self tightening T - shirt , posing in front of a scooter . Would Keith be so daring , so early on in the shoot and ask Gregg to recreate the famous Cody reclining on a bike pose ?
Sadly not , but as Gregg finds the wing mirrors , Keith's on it in a flash , ' Your James Dean , your checking yourself out' . Gregg responds to Keith's direction by effortlessly flicking back his fringe .
Following a quick change of self tightening t shirt for Gregg ( off camera )The gentleman werewolf poses by a car bonnet , for some reason the pose provokes much mirth from Team Keith's assistants .
'Baby we were born to Run '
Wow ! Its the Perfect Stance !
Professional as ever Gregg hits 'the prefect stance' , Keith is awestruck . Sadly not awestruck enough ' Okay the same pose , but lets loose the self tightening t-shirt . Instead Keith asks Gregg to hit the road . Gregg beams away and tenses a bicep . Giggles from Team Keith's assistants aside , could Gregg be leading up giving Keith a private gun show ?
As if anticipating the private gun show Keith cranks up the central heating and the action switches to indoors . Clearly warmed up but not enough to loose those t shirts , off camera for a change Gregg quickly changes into another ' is that a lady bird self tightening t shirt ? .
Gregg - Private Gun Show ?
As if anticipating the private gun show Keith cranks up the central heating and the action switches to indoors . Clearly warmed up but not enough to loose those t shirts , off camera for a change Gregg quickly changes into another ' is that a lady bird self tightening t shirt ? .
Keith never short of ideas , asks Gregg to leap off Keith's mini platform and do a mid air jump . Gregg obliges and recreates what Keith labels as 'Perfect cheerleader jump! ' . Gregg responds by saying with ' Should I do it again , but more manly ?'
Once again Keith fails to size the day by replying ' Yeah , your so right , lets go again and we'll just loose that self tightening 'lady bug' motif t- shirt' . Instead Gregg takes control and in a brave move , offers to serve up a tribute to Ralph Macchio with a Karate Kick !
Wow ! Kick Ass !
As Keith clicks away Gregg puts on a mini marital arts display to rival the 3 ninjas in their prime . But Gregg's not finished yet and coyly suggests ' What about some push ups , maybe ? A golden opportunity for Keith say ' Awesome 'Big G' , lets loose that T shirt ' . But no, As Gregg drops and gives Keith twenty , one of team Keith assistants shouts out ' Ab crunches! ' but to no effect .
Then finally Keith discovers his sense of adventure and asks Gregg to do a one handed press up.
Alas Gregg hits the floor and says ' I'm not very strong , I'm sweating ' ,Keith's reply is 'Its good to sweat' or something similar .
Sweating - Hit the Showers Dimples !
After yet another off camera change for Gregg , he reemerges in full Dreamboat regalia, pausing to ask Keith ' What's my motivation?'
Keith offers the following suggestion ' 'Think of someone your Bro's with , no not Miley Cryus , maybe someone you shared a hot tub with , that you recently posed by that classic Rock and Doris flick 'Pillow Talk' poster . That you think has the sweetest set of abs since Marky Mark .
No stranger to taking Direction Gregg asks Kieth ' And Could I be like be asking this person to a prom ?'
The Photo Shoot of the decade continues as Keith asks Gregg 'to tell the fans who you are reading about'.
' I'm reading about Taylor Launter and David Henrie ' Gregg Volunteers .
Finally just as Bruce Weber has his Golden Retrievers , so Keith has his Dalmatians and of course asks Gregg to pose with them . But as Gregg poses , those naughty assistants call for the dogs , as they jumps free , Gregg screams in fear which is unfortunately captured on video .
Heart warming
A true Bruce Weber moment
'David Save Me!!'
But the big question remains, no the one about if Gorgeous Gregg wears boxers or briefs ?, but has Keith lost his magic touch with his zoom lens !
